(Dan Tri) - My life has been in turmoil since my wife had an affair and decided to leave her family behind to run after a rich lover.
For about a year now, my wife has been behaving differently. She often makes excuses for working overtime, comes home late sometimes, or spends the weekend “relaxing alone.” When I ask her, she tells me that I am too controlling and don’t give her any space.
I am not a nosy person, but I was worried and checked my wife's phone. I found hidden messages. My wife admitted that she had an affair with a rich partner. She said that I was not romantic enough, did not make her feel loved and that she had found true happiness with someone else.
Just three days after I discovered my wife’s affair, she packed her things and left, ignoring the sobs of our little daughter. I stood there, my heart heavy with the destruction of our family.
My life was a mess after that. I worked, looked after my children, faced the curious and pitiful eyes of everyone around me. Everyone was gossiping about my family.
I went through days of deadlock and difficulty when my wife had an affair (Illustration: TD).
They say I am weak and cannot keep my wife. Every day my daughter asks: "Dad, where is mom? Why isn't she home?" Every time such a question is asked, my heart aches.
As for my wife, she lives a life of luxury. She shows off pictures of expensive trips and fancy meals on social media. Seeing those pictures, I feel both hurt and angry, but there is nothing I can do.
I have been single for 3 months, my wife left me. But recently, my wife started contacting me again and wants to reconcile.
Last week, my wife came back to see me. At first, she texted me to ask about the kids, then gradually expressed her desire to meet. She admitted that she was wrong, that she had lost her family because of frivolous things, and hoped that I would give her a chance to make things right.
I wanted to say no. How could I forgive someone who had caused me so much pain? But seeing my daughter happy every time she heard that her mother had come to visit, I felt my heart soften.
I want to have a complete family. I am an introvert, it is difficult to find a companion. I am afraid to start to know and get to know a new woman. My wife is the one who has accompanied me for many years. We have overcome many difficulties together.
Part of me wants to believe that she is truly sorry, that there is still a chance for this family to heal. But the other part reminds me of the damage she has caused.
When my family learned that she wanted to get back together, they strongly objected. My mother frankly said: "Don't be foolish. How can you forgive a woman like that and then leave her?". When my close friends heard the news, they laughed at me, calling me a weak person with no self-respect.
What do you think I should choose?
